The remote is nice because you can see which mode the camera is on without looking at the camera. So whether it is mounted on your head or chest, on a T-top or bridge on a boat, you can simply see the camera mode from the remote which is waterproof. Get some rain-x for inside the camera waterproof case, so it doesn't fog up. I have the hero2 and it has poor low-light video & picture quality. I'll let someone else speak to the 3's capabilities.
